    If Haye gets beaten conclusively by Wlad...

    Do you think he will just retire? Or will he join the mix at heavyweight and try to work his way back up?

    Will he go after and recieve a rematch? Or will he get/go after a fight with Vitali instead purely off his name's strength?

    Or even drop back down to cruiserweight?

    What do you think... I reckon he'll go after a rematch and if he fails to get one, he'll quit for a few years

      Haye said he would retire if he lost to Barrett, so i think retirement is a real possibility. Haye has always struck me as more of a celeb than a Boxer allthough he does train hard i still think the money and fame mean more to him than Boxing.

      Promoter/Celeb/money vs hard training punishing your body and dieting/money.

              yeah true

              i don't think it would be a permanent retirement though... the allure of getting back in the ring is too strong for someone so young and who loves the attention so much

              there's a decent chance Wlad would give him a rematch knowing full well he's probably gonna win and make a nice amount in the process as well

                I think he could still make a legacy for himself is he dropped back down to Cruiserweight. It is a pretty weak division without him. I would favor Haye over Cunningham and Ademek. Macaroni is getting back in the mix as well so he could get another easy win.

                    hes said beforehand that hes thought about going into MMA, id hate to see him KTFO and then go into MMA. imo boxing would only have something to lose.

                    i dont think he'll drop back to cruiserweight thats for sure, hes not going to be able to strip off 30lbs of lean muscle. i can see him trying again and securing victories against a couple of other fihters like chagez, dimitrenko and a few others.

                    ifhe does get KTFO and retires he will end up coing back, i can him missing the limelight.
